Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Michael Ledo Nothing like an interesting story made uninteresting. Sarah Hope (Lily Rabe) as a child was the sole survivor of a cult suicide from 3/23/1985. Now as an adult she is returning to the secluded ranch (no bars, can't run to get help) with a camera crew who happen to be the larvae of the FBI men who raided the compound. Not to give away too much, but they locate some old film canisters (and 1 VHS) about the cult engaged in soul transmigration.The individual scenes were done okay, but when placed together it somehow didn't make for a great film. Raspberry Award winner Jessica Alba will be looking to add to that list as Maggie who played a deer in the headlights for most of the feature. Hey! Let's capture that look and put it on the DVD cover! The male lead needed someone other than Thomas Jane whose charisma seemed forced upon us. Brad Pitt would have been too expensive, but Billy Drago, or heck even Billy Zane.Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.

omendata A lot of people think this is basedon the Jim Jones famous cult massacre but its actually based on the Hale Bop comet cult and its actually a true cult who poisoned each other with an apple pie special over 3 days as they believed aliens were coming to transport them to another world - how some people can fall for these cults is beyond me but it makes for fascinating viewing.Thomas Jane was superb and reminds me of David Koresh another cult nutjob. Jessica Alba was just a bit of fluff on a stick and could have been substituted with any actress! I quite like cult type movies and there haven't been many lately!It is a bit slow but there are some real jump scares - I messed ma pontaloons on at least 3 occasions so its not without its scares.Overall though its pretty standard fair but worth a watch if you are a horror fan!

elizrug I am the biggest critic of horror films. If there's just one thing that doesn't seem right, I automatically dislike a film. I really liked this, though.It has a unique story, one that hasn't been touched upon very often: scary cults. It has a good cast who all work well together. There's not too much crappy dialogue, like the ubiquitous "Die you f-ing b****!" that is found in a lot of movies. (I've never understood how someone, who is fighting for their life, could be thinking of screaming cuss words at an attacker, and I curse like a truck driver.) I'm not a huge fan of Jessica Alba but this role worked for her.The scares were a success. I jumped a couple of times.Overall I think it's a very good scary movie. Is it Oscar-worthy? No, but that's not why I watched it.

narutochick-53581 Overall was a very strong recent horror film, especially when compared to recent "failures" such as; Unfriended, Occulus, Ouijia, and Devil's Due (plus plenty more).This movie isn't perfect by any means, but for the standards of horror and being an enjoyable movie, yes it was very good. Some of the events where a little too predictable, but I didn't find those parts too ruining for the overall film. The supernatural aspect was definitely interesting in this one, especially when pairing it with a suicide cult (oh and no it's not ripping off the suicide cult from V/H/S 2 BTW, it's very different from that one so have no fear in thinking that this film might be ripping off other horror films. Trust me, it's not.).Is it scary? Kind of. Probably not nightmare inducing for me, but I think the scariest aspect is revolving around the cult and how the followers blindly follow the leader much like cults in real life. Is it re watchable? I would say so in all honesty. Is it amazing? Ehhh, not amazing but very good and deserves the rating of 7/10 from me. Does it end well? Yes and no. Some of the actions of a certain character irked me towards the end and I found myself very disappointing in this character. However I will say the ending wasn't bad really by any means, especially when playing off a certain part of the beginning of the film. Also another good part of the closing of this film is the very last line said. For some reason the very subtle, nonchalant line at the very end really got to me, and I am sure once you watch it you'll understand why.
